The Introduction That Never Was

Hello guys welcome to My blog it's another exciting edition week 64 and the team for this week which I picked says tell us the worst lies you ever believed it could be a superstitious belief or something someone told you that you later found out what's untrue but at the time you believed it wholeheartedly.

Okay yeah there's this time last year my crushed brother chatted me up. We greeted and he broke the news In the middle of the conversation this guy was like

"Sir my sister's introduction is coming up next month which is the month of December".

I became mute for few minutes before I could reply. It wasn't what I wanted hearing or what I expected but the news shattered me down and without hesitation I called her and we greet before I brought the topic up.

Hey dear, how are you and how are you coping up with studies? I heard that your introduction is happening next month in December. Is that true?"

Her replied crushed me. My heart sank, and my mind reeled. The confirmation shattered my hopes, leaving me breathless and disoriented.

"Yes, it's true."

The response shocked me sha. I was dumbfounded. All hope seemed lost at my very face. Four years of admiring and waiting for a lady, crushed in a twinkle of an eye. I thought to myself, "So this is how life works? You invest emotions, time, finance and energy into someone, only to lose them just as suddenly?"

I had no other options rather than falling for it, knowing fully well what a straight forward lady's she was.

For days and weeks I was restless the boundary between me and her grew cold. I told my self.

"Since her introduction is coming up December I believe is best I distance myself abit from her"

Even though it was a very hard decision for me I just have to distance myself. Cos I remember telling myself even though someday we don't end up together I'd love to see her happy.

Days pass and I couldn't entertain visitors and friends and I also couldn't control my emotions, feelings and hurt. I went to her DM and dropped a message.

"Hey, How's life with you?. I just thought of checking up on you and yeah...... How's preparation for the introduction going?

She replied, "Life is fair enough."

I pressed on, curiously. "So, how's the preparation for the introduction going?"

She seemed puzzled as if she don't know what I was talking about. "What introduction?"

I clarified, " Your introduction,the one you and your brother mentioned."

She laughed, "There's no introduction, oh."

Suddenly I became mute for a while, "So you mean all this was a lie and you made me believed it?"

She replied, "Nobody lied to you but you believed what you thought was true".

At that point, I felt relieved knowing that there was no introduction coming up.

This lie dealt with me emotionally and psychologically, now I go into deep findings before believing whatever am told.
